Ok that's one way to answer it!
Why do commentators find the need to waffle on aimlessly, if he doesn’t land it, it’s a wasted opportunity to get field position, Sales scrounging for 3 pointers with the wind behind them is striking fear into no one….

You're going to upset WT as well.
Mind you, I think it did go backwards but have seen them given as knock ons.
Ford is not England quality looking at last weekend and this one so far. His attack is limited to kicking the ball like a pale imitation of Farrell

Jibulu's darts are bordering on Danishness...
Fair to say it wasn’t definitively forwards on any replay I have seen, maybe sideways, has to be pretty clear especially in that context.You're going to upset WT as well.

I can see why they're annoyed, but Sale need to stop yapping at the ref.
It's never a good idea to piss off the men with the whistle (as Bath fans will know all too well)

Don't worry we'll stop the game if you have an injury too, it's not something we only do for Bath players
TBF, he didn't stop for Ewels (and forced the kick to touch, risking a miss), and only stopped for Roux when it looked like someone was looking to run into him on the ground
The ref getting in between Warr and Ford doesn't get any prettier on replay
Yeah, given the the ball doesn't touch him, I'm not sure what the law allows for - but it absolutely should have been a scrum to Sale
I’m assuming he didn’t realise at the time how much he impacted it wasn’t even any flavour of apology I recall seeing quite a few similar incidence where the refs gone to the scrum not sure if it touched them in those instances, would have been better if he didn’t move completely and it had to be called back.
Semi-fair, but... he really should have known, that he stopped the first pass, even if he didn't know how the **** the second was made to be.
Another very squint lineout, with no challenge.
I know there is a limit on how far you can push those - haven't worked out where that limit is yet though.

I think you're correct, not sure if the ref can call it back for being in the way as either a ball or player has to make contact with the ref IIRC.
Some law nause might have the answer?
I'd say he doesn't know the laws but he must know them to be able to ignore them so thoroughly
Nothing going Sales way…

Except the scrum.
Sale might want to knock some balls on to see if they can get change out of penalties/FKs.
Even if Spencer doesn’t ground it could it be a sale try if the player touching it down is already on the deck?
